So, in other words it will show up on my transcript for any prospective employer to see. And, it meets my requirement () which is that I have one transcript which has my degee on it and shows my 9 hours of math. I need this for Texas teacher certification later on....much later on...but I'm trying to be proactive here.
Awsome suggestion!!! Might as well do it while you can....cuz we know how easy (not) it is to learn higher math when we have been away from high school math for years LOL

I'm new to this Aleks program. Can anyone tell me how Excelsior transfer these courses? Are the suggested upper level courses given credit as such? Are any of the courses especially the college algebra, trigonometry and college algebra with trigonometry as well as any of the statistic courses duplicate according to Excelsior? What order would be best to take these courses since they more than likely have a lot of crossover? How are these transcribed, meaning is Business Statistics documented as an upper level business course or as an upper level arts and science course like the rest of them? Please list and answer any more information I might have missed to ask.

I asked an EC advisor that same question and they said Business Statistics would be counted as arts and sciences, though they of course had no idea what ALEKS was. I would also be interested to see how this course was transcribed for anyone here.

Did they say it would as an upper level arts and science?

Unfortunately they didn't say. I would be surprised if it didn't count as upper level though, since EC almost always goes by the ACE recommendation.

Did excelsior transcribe it as an upper level course?

ALEKS sooooo rocks, just gotta share!!! After TESC transcripted my Business Stats course as an UL Business course, I decided not to argue with them and just take the ALEKS Intro to Stats course to fulfill requirements for both my in-progress BA/Psych and planned BSBA Gen Mgmt. Yesterday evening I finally got around to starting the Intro to Stats course, and hit 69% complete on the initial course assessment. Today, I went back into the course, did a couple of modules as refreshers, requested another assessment, and hit 78% complete. I then immediately logged out of ALEKS, logged into ACE, and submitted the course as complete. Went to grab a drink, came back a few minutes later, refreshed the ACE screen, and found that ALEKS had already approved the course - in less than 5 minutes from submission! So, in less than 24 hours, 3 more credits and a math requirement complete! :-) Gotta love the ALEKS corp's fantastic level of customer service - it's so rare nowadays....

Lia,
Would you PLEASE be a guinea pig for me? If you have any days left on your subscription, could you take the Stats for Behavioral Sciences assessment? I want to see if a) there is enough overlap to pull off another 3 credits and b) if TESC will take a third stats without duplication of credit. Pretty please????
